It depends on your definition of smoothie...I make something that fits my definition...I use four heaping tbsps of almassed, 1 banana, 8 oz almond milk, 2 tbsp sugar free syrup (the kinds they have in coffee shops), 1/4 tsp vanilla...blend for about 30 seconds...that's my smoothie...

I mix it with my protein shake... I would assume a smoothie would be fine. You have to mix it with something other than water (does not taste too good).

Yes, I did and I was enormously successful! - I only mixed it with water. Losing weight, sometimes means to act consequent.

Yes. mix the powder with chocolate soy milk (i use Silk brand) and it tastes just like rich chocolate milk.

I mixed it with either coconut milk or almond milk 8 oz, 1 tablespoon coconut oil, and ice chips in the blender, and it tasted fine. The only issue was the coconut oil with the ice made it clump into little chips, but the other ingredients mixed fine.

Yes - mine did. best blender ever made in my opinion and beats the Blendtec and Vitamix hands down because the "wave" action on the Tempest really DOES work and in 12 seconds, my smoothie using huge frozen strawberries is smooth, unlike the others we tried.

I blend it with frozen fruit and diet v8 splash and you can't even taste the powder. It's like an awesome fruit smoothie, packed with protein!

I mean, you certainly could, I don't know how good it would taste. Might give the smoothie a funny texture because it's so dry and powdery.

I love making smoothies before class each day. It works well if they're cut up into manageable sizes. It is also best if they're frozen first, but it does work with raw veggies. When they're frozen it's able to grind it up easier.

I think it's an appetite supressant that the company made up. I'm not really sure, but I like the smoothies. I add frozen strawberries.

Yes but in my opinion, it didnt taste very good. I use mine in smoothies(with greek yogurt) and its excellent.

Hi Dalila: Yes, I have used that product. It is very tasty and cannot be found in local health food stores. I tried to find it in the Beach area with no good luck. It is a good product and can be used with water rather than milk which cuts back yet more calories. It comes with some good recipes for healthy shakes. I will order it again. Redondo Beach.

I have never tried it but I would imagine no. As mentioned before it's just a plastic blender piece. I do use it for making drinks cold with ice though as the spinning does melt the ice if it's only a small amount. For on the go smoothies I use a different blender which I do recommend: Hamilton Beach 51101B Personal Blender with Travel Lid, Black

I put 1/2 teaspoon in smoothies, it's gritty, I have had no negative effects : ) Research on the web and decide for yourself.

I have tried it, but not consistently. But I would recommend sipping with food, because it upset my stomach without. Also it's only around $5.00/box at whole Food, don't know why it's so costly on here.

I use this product with a vanilla protein powder, buttermilk and apple juice in a smoothie. I like it. It is not "wow delicious" but it is ok. I hope this helps you...

I found it to be ok...I was not happy with how it made green smoothies or almond milk so I upgraded to a vitamix. This is a good blender for the price but if you are doing recipes like almond milk and any other raw recipes you may want to consider a more powerful blender.

I just got the vitamix and i now seem to do more smoothies than juicing. I throw in a bunch of veggies and fruit and blend with water and it comes out to thick or runny depending on how much water you add and how watery the ingredients are. I LOVE it! You get all the fiber instead of throwing it in the garbage! i still sometimes do a juice fast, but generally, i now do a green smoothie for breakfast.

Yes I have many times. This is a commercial bar blender. Loud and rough and built like a tank.

Never tried it, but that thing is so powerful that I don't think it would be a problem, but you still ave the pulb, so it would be a smoothie not a juice, I LOVE THIS BLENDER, so powerful, super easy to clean, worth every dollar
